Innovative Single-Point RGB & Zoom Light: Godox SZ150R

In this episode, we take a look at the new Godox SZ150R RGB and white, zoom-able LED light for video. This is probably the most innovative light I’ve seen in a few years with a single point light source, RGB and tungsten to daylight color tuning as well as the ability to adjust the beam angle from 20 to 65°. Let’s take a closer look!
